There is a Tomorrow: My Life is an engaging and compelling autobiography that recounts how Burgel Mertens has seen the grace of God working through her life and sustaining her through many struggles.

Growing up in post-war Germany, Mrs. Mertens and her family suffered under communist rule, and the author risked her life at a young age to escape to West Germany. Even then, tragedy seemed to follow her family, but her faith, determination, and perseverance carried her through the many challenges that arose for her and her husband.

The consistent theme of There is a Tomorrow: My Life is God's continuous presence and the author's appreciation for the divine guidance she has seen working in her family over the years.
